Flexon BENJAMIN 600 vs. Other 600 Series Models
Choosing between Flexon's 600 series eyeglasses often comes down to fit preferences and subtle style differences. All models share the same revolutionary memory metal technology, but each serves different needs.
BENJAMIN 600 vs. EINSTEIN 600
The BENJAMIN 600 and EINSTEIN 600 both feature rectangular frames with full-rim construction, but the EINSTEIN 600 distinguishes itself with bowed temples designed to accommodate wider heads more comfortably. The EINSTEIN is available in 52mm and 54mm lens widths, while the BENJAMIN offers 54mm and 56mm—making the BENJAMIN a better choice if you need a larger frame. Both use identical memory metal technology and offer the same durability, so your decision should be based on temple style preference and size requirements.
BENJAMIN 600 vs. NATHANIEL 600
At the same $116.31 price point, the BENJAMIN 600 and NATHANIEL 600 are direct competitors. Both feature rectangular metal construction with memory metal in the bridge and temples. The BENJAMIN offers three color options (Black Chrome, Gunmetal, Brown) compared to the NATHANIEL's more limited palette. If color variety and finish options matter to you, the BENJAMIN 600 provides more flexibility to match your personal style.
BENJAMIN 600 vs. LARSEN 600
The LARSEN 600 takes a minimalist approach with simplified temple detailing, creating a cleaner, more understated look. It starts at a slightly lower price ($109.54) compared to the BENJAMIN's $116.31. If you prefer eyewear that blends into the background rather than making a statement, the LARSEN's minimal design might appeal more. However, the BENJAMIN's refined detailing offers a more polished appearance that works well in professional settings.
Our recommendation: The BENJAMIN 600 hits the sweet spot for most buyers. Its 54mm and 56mm size options accommodate medium to larger faces, the three finish choices provide versatility, and the classic rectangular shape with refined temple detailing delivers a professional look without being overly formal. The straight temples (versus the EINSTEIN's bowed design) work well for most head shapes, and the price reflects excellent value for Flexon's proven memory metal technology.
